No, what it tells us is that the type of viewfinder is a low priority for most users, or that there are other variables that supersede the type of viewfinder in importance. For instance, that Canikon has been established in the market for decades and has eminently greater brand power in the digital camera industry than the other brands.
That may be right but it does not change the fact a good number of EVF cameras are on the market now and most buyers still pick OVF ones kinda says something to me.
If you argue the VF is a low priority for most users (and maybe it is) then there is no reason to switch to EVF's
What you seem to be suggesting is that canikon should wait until they have trouble selling DSLRs before they start making changes. Well by then it's going to be much too late, they need to be proactive and start ramping their R&D now if they haven't already, or else they'll get left in the dust.
Much too late?
Why build something if people don't want it?
If Sony had doubled their market share with their SLT's I'd maybe say well they have something here. I own and use an SLT camera, but I consider it a compromise in many ways v an optical finder.
Because people will want it in near future when it becomes undeniably superior to OVFs (based on its current trajectory of year-to-year improvement) for the vast majority of a typical DSLR user's needs. They will buy whatever brands are making it, whether that includes Canikon or not.
